WALTER T. FLING, OF ST. JOSEPH, MISSOURI.

FUR/NACE-BURNER.

Be it known that I, WALTER T. FLING, a citizen of the United States,residing at St. Joseph, in the county ofBuclianan and State of Missouri,have invented new and useful Improvements in Furnace-Burners, of whichthe following is a specification. This invention relates to furnaceburners,

burning natural gas and heating urnacesr One of the principal objectslof the invention is to rovide asectional burner which can be rea ilyplaced within the fui'nace before tliesections are connected togetherand after the sections have'beeirplaced in the furnace they may bequickly connected together to form a substantially circularlnu'nerhaving a series of inlet openings in the under Another object of theinvention is to rovide a burner of the class referred to W iich shall besimple in construction and efficient in o eration.` L

'l iese .and other objects may vhe attained by means of the constructionillustrated vin the accompanying drawing, in which:-

Figure 1 is a central vertical section through a furnace burner .made inaccordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the uppermember or top oi the burner. Fig. 8 is a detail section showing themanner of securing the top to the hollow inner ring. Fig 4 is aperspective view of two sections of the hollow inner ring. Fi 5 is asimilar View of two sections of thease.

Referring to the drawing for a' more particular description of myinvention, the nuineral 1 designates each of the sections ofthe are madein duplicate of identical construction a descriptionof one will servefor all. In the present instance there are four of these sections andeach consists p f'a one-fourthsectionalpl'ate Ahftvirngi; .upii one enda lug 2 and uponl the opposite end an upwardly ex tending boss Stor thelug 2 upon the next adextendsaroiind the 'inner edge' of the section 1.yFormed on ,the under side of the base platel is 'a 170585, said bosshaving an inlet opfning .6` therein for-the gas. Tlhese sec- Specicationof Letters Patent.

boss 9 through which the attaching screw 10 passes. A downwardlyextending inner wall- 11 is provided on each section and an outer 60wall 12 provided with jet openings 13. The lower edge of the wall 11engages the roove in the bead 4. The top 14 is made in ialves and one ofsaid halves is provided with a erforation 15 through which the attachingolt 16 passes. The screws 1.0 pass through holes 17 in the top. Theouter side iianges 18 are' provided with outlet openings 19. f

From the foregoing it will be obvious that afurnace b urner made inaccordancewith my invention can be set up within'aJ furnace owing'to thefact that it is made in sections and the gas Will be confined Within theburner until it becomes thoroughly heated when the heatedgases willescape through the jet openings 13 and' out through the outlet openings19 into the furnace. The current of air. which'is taken into the burnerand mingled with gases serves to force the flame out Ythrough the outletagainst the/walls of the furnace, thus distributing the heat' morewidelyandgiving a more'intense heat.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new, ist- Afurnace burner comprising a base having a grooved rib, said base beingmade in sections and provided Withmeans for connecting said sectionstogether, a hollow inner ring made in sections and having an inner Walltted into said grooved rib and providedf with an outer wall having jetopenings therein, perforated bosses upon the upper surfacel of said ringsections and a two part cover pro-- vided with means for connecting saidparts andan annular outer -vyall provided with out-` 9 5 lett openings.

In testimony whereof I aHiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
